De Groot Family Office

Over De Groot Family Office

We are a committed family office investor - investing for the long term.

WHY US? • Experienced: we help our portfolio companies to build high performing organizations, expand globally, grow through M&A, and execute successful exits.

• Long Term approach: we aim to generate value over the long term (unlike typical VC/PE funds, we do not have a preset exit date).

• Substantial capital at hand: our own balance sheet, as well as funds from our HNW and Family Office network.

• Independent: your business is our business (unlike VC/PE funds, no fee and carried interest business model).

• Entrepreneurial value creation attitude: we are builders, not bankers.

• Rapid response: we assess, decide and allocate capital at high speed; no lengthy decision making.

OUR ROOTS The De Groot Family Office ('DGFO') was founded by J.A.G. (Han) de Groot. Han started DGFO after the sale of its globally operating marketing technology company MetrixLab (and US based MarketTools) to private equity firm Bain Capital. Sponsored by Bain Capital, De Groot merged MetrixLab and MarketTools with Japan based Macromill, and became its Global CEO (until Nov 2015) and Board Member (until Nov 2016). The merger created a leading marketing technology company with more than 1700 employees and 34 offices worldwide. The company went public on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in march 2017. De Groot continued as shareholder until early 2018.
